Alliance for Coney Island hosts Food and Music Festival

The Alliance for Coney Island hosted its first-ever Food and Music Festival Saturday, inviting attendees to bring their families and friends to the boardwalk for four blocks of live music, food and entertainment.

Organizers say the event is a way to give back to the community and remind people of the wonderful things Coney Island has to offer.
